Review of The Price of Fame  Open in new Window.
Review by staiNed Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.5)
Good late day, Beholden Author Icon

Limericks, all with the familiar rhyme, and historical themes. Somewhat funny, yet serious but creating a smile. I have never tried this form, it seems to light humored for me. I seem no errors, and enjoyed both. Thank you.

Review of Dark Poet  Open in new Window.
Review by staiNed Author IconMail Icon
Rated: ASR | (4.5)
Good afternoon, 🌖 HuntersMoon Author Icon

A dark poem shining bright in my dark places, lures me out, and this is moody in its intent, and gives imagery of them being caged, freed, misunderstood, but to be feared all the same. The added clarification on some word choices was a nice added touch too.

What a creative way you see your creative muse as dark entities, smothering and loving in the ideas they give, well edited, I have no suggestions to change it, and honestly I enjoyed. Thank you.

Good afternoon, 👼intuey Author Icon

A fun read and well done with the word restrictions in place, there a lot of feeling in this, and almost a glimpse of anger. No suggestions to change this, the stanzas are short and intense. Thanks for sharing.

Good late afternoon, FlaLover Author Icon

Not overdone is imagery, and spot on with how one would feel freshy wounded, kind of reminds me of a song I enjoy. It's hard to be broken, and every day you learn to live cracked and loosely glued together. Thank you for sharing.

Good afternoon, Wandering Thoughts Author Icon

Politics. eek, Temper inflaming subject, almost taboo to bring it up. Well written, and the point is passed on indeed. I have my thoughts as everyone does, It is over and over, nothing truly changes, might this time though since angry rules now. Thanks!

Good afternoon, AB2 Author Icon

Might I say right out the gate. What a unique username. This is creative, yet simple is its imagery but tells more than it says. The soul seen through a candle, and soulless a wick that feeds the fire. The lack of captivation*Smile* it nice as I not a romantic. Is the punctuation or lack or it intentional? If you centered it, it would do wonders for presentation. Thank you for sharing, I enjoy poetry and yours was a delight.

Review of Perpetual Jello  Open in new Window.

Morning, ChristineB Author Icon

A snowy morning and bang! a love poem, not very romantic, but a last feelings of what one would think of themselves, and how their feelings survive and have the right to love the other. Not the classic troupe, but more of a darker journey with a lighted tunnel end. Thank you for sharing.

Morning, Tim Chiu Author Icon Random Review brought me and delightful a love poem so early in my day. Great imagery, and that passes to feel, heartwarming and a bit sensual. Relationship can all consuming whether in fuzzy, blind struck sunlight or regretful chatter. The former here, and a pleasant to read with my coffee.
No suggestion beyond cosmetic, and well edited. Thank you for sharing way back in 2017.

Good afternoon, Joy Author Icon Random review link brought me and how delightful. Two retired aged men fight for the remote, one of a kind in subject, and a neat form to boot.

So well written, I could see these men in all their aged glory, the anger, the shaking fist, the exchange of bad words and a smack in the face with the remote. No suggestion as I struggle with forms and this seems spot on.

Thanks Joy and enjoy your day.

Morning, Howl Author Icon

What a delightful find random review has found for me.*Cleaver*

"in silence there is horror yet also: beauty" I got shivers. This is wonderful right up bright and blinding in my dark place. It's different as not really a gothic poem but more an explanation of horror of silence and being alone, the fear of the mind. Very much of mental health and the shadow cast by that light that casts shadows in our darkest corners, holding hand with the horror that cares. No suggestion this is well written and very my enjoyment. Enjoy your day and again Thanks!

Good Afternoon, Keaton Foster: Know My Hell! Author Icon

Random Review link brought me and I enjoyed this long prose, train, feelings quite a jump from the start to the end, interesting, a little hard to understand so two reads.

Creative and I had a flash of a very sad manga I read once, involving a train. No suggestions as this is well edited, kind of like going down a rabbit hole. Thanks!

Review of Hope  Open in new Window.
Review by staiNed Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
Good Morning, Ember Author Icon
Random Review Link brought me *Cleaver*

Hope is for dreamers and realists that know what lays waiting in the dark if the bright spot of hope goes out. Despite what happens we will always hope, though is may not feel like. Simple, well written, some questions we have all asked ourselves and the thought on those questions. This is able to stir up but not unbalance anyone with trauma. Well edited and easy to understand. Thank you.

Good Day,
Tim Chiu Author Icon Random Review Link has gone way back.. *BigSmile*

Tells of winning, though what was won a mystery, the thrill, the mindset, how fleeting that moment can be. Enjoyable. Some very good prose and had me rereading a few lines. Thank you for sharing, and no suggestions to change this. Kudos! *Cleaver*

Morning, sandy Author Icon

Early I know. *Smile* Relationships are hard and always takes two to make or break them, this poem reminds me of someone and I can relate to the shutting down, the feeling of being blocked. Complicated for sure.

Tense feelings, well done.

Gosh, if not for the description I would not of seen the rose of a youth, hyped and sexy, not of aged and gravity. So creative, delightful so thought out. I enjoyed this poem a lot and can't but smile at the imagery and mood it provides. Well written and edited, Thanks!!

Good Sunny Day, Mursal Author Icon Random Review link found you.

A love poem, full of opposite imagery, designs to show the torment and highs and lows of caring and perhaps it not being returned. Almost has a feel of a stalker.
I don't see any punctuation errors and there is some rhyme. Simple, well done. Thank you for sharing and enjoy your day.

Good Afternoon, ridinghhood-p.boutilier Author Icon Random Review Link

I'm not fiamilar with many poetry forms and struggle with almost any form, that said this is so sad and magical, to still love when you forgotten that love is crazy. Thanks for the authors note to clarify the poem. I could see her in her T shirts and honestly sad.

Thanks and no suggestions. Enjoy your day.

Good afternoon, Beholden Author Icon Random Review Link favors you.

Pandora. So much legend and myths about that box. This is a great poem, prose is spot on, and there's deep mysterious imagery, a gift no something not wanted but not being aware. Thanks for sharing and being involved in contests. No suggestion to edit.

Morning, Lou-Here By His Grace Author Icon Random Review Link

Enjoyable somewhat dark, very easy to understand poem about the ending of Halloween, all the preparation, the rituals, the vulture's wing, the lasting effect done. The sense of accomplishment. No deep imagery, quaint and well done.

Thanks!

Good Day, Random Review Link, Elisa, Stik of Clubs Author Icon

Creative, a great mystic poem asking some serious questions, those questions we all have asked at one time or another. There a touch of creepy, and love expressed in a way new for me, I read it twice, no suggestions to improve it, though that said, I do wonder the last three stanzas why? But It is good, and I did enjoy it.
Thanks kindly for sharing.

Editor, dark, creepy and carrying a scythe, well done. A glimpse of darkness, of what's below. Slash and Burn indeed. This is almost like a 80s slasher horror movie, No suggestions, entertaining, abode Dante. Thanks!

Good Day, Random Review Link, Scyphoza Author Icon

Fatigue and Exhaustion mentally and physically, can be different for everyone, though myself can say I have not felt exhaustion since my youth. This is quite creative, the struggle of being torn by so much in your mind and it showing physically. Kind of dark and somewhat sad. Depression? I hope it helped in some way sharing. I don't see any errors, but suggest a font change perhaps.
Thank you, and enjoy your day.
